Using the Proxy Server

[Kannan V <am...@mail.com>]

Hello:

  I am new to jmeter (using ver 1.9) and trying to load test our web application. I was trying to use the Proxy server to generate the frame work of my test plan. As described in the user manual, I created a test plan and a thread group and below that i added a Recording Controller. I also added a Simple Data Writer Listener. Then in the WorkBench I added the HTTP Proxy server from Non Test Elements and give the port as 8080. Then I changed the browser proxy:port to localhost:8080. Then I clicked "Start" in the HTTP Proxy Server and then took a new browser instance and browsed thru my web application. After sometime, i clicked "Stop" in HTTP Proxy Server. But nothing is seen recorded under the "Recording Contoller". Am i missed something ? Also, where to set the properties "Target Controller and Grouping" of HTTP Proxy Server as described in the user manual? These are not seen in the HTTP Server Dialog Box.

thanks and regards,

-- Kannan.

Hi Kannan,
Ok, so you've setup a Proxy Server on your workbench and a Recording Controller
in a threadgroup within your test plan. You also need to set the "Target
Controller" in the HTTP Proxy Server to point to the Recording Controller you
just set up (unless you changed the default names it should say something like
"Thread Group > Recording Controller"). Grouping is just used to split up your
requests in to different groups, in your test plan. If you're just getting
things started then you can leave this setting on "Do Not Group Samplers".
Hope that helps!
